We have a KEXT file that helps to send the SCSI comands and our own vendor specific commands to a MassStorage device. This KEXT works fine for me in Mac X 10.2. Now I need to develop a similar application for Mac X 10.3 and 10.4 too,
Your driver should still work on 10.3 and 10.4. From the documents I referred from the Mac developer site I changed the dependent kernel versions and compile my code using XTools in Tiger[Mac X 10.4]
This should not be necessary. and followed the below steps to load the driver. 1)Copy the KEXT file into the folder \System\Library\Extensions 2)Set the rights of the Kext file as below Owner - System Group - Wheel
I presume you did this using the Get Info window in Finder? That probably just set the ownership and permissions for the KEXT bundle itself and not its contents.
3)Restart the system. log into an administrator account. 4)Plugin the device when executing the above steps now I getting a message as attached. Can anybody help me to get out of this bottle neck.
You'll need to do a little bit of work in Terminal. Please see the Kernel Extensions release note for details:
In addition to what's shown there, before restarting do:
$ sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions
to update the KEXT caches upon the next reboot.
Thanks in Advance, Raja.
